I've got one or two NEC 21" monsters sitting on the shelf that will sync 
to anything I've ever thrown at them , I'm
pretty sure they'll do at least 1600x11280 decently. Only problem is I'm 
in Illinois, anybody heading from the midwest to
New England? (I'd go back to see family, but I 'escaped' from the 
socialist republic of Mass. and have no desire to ever go back..)
